CORK 1T UP.

CORK 1T UP.
When your giddy soul within,
Struggling meath load of sin,
Would a joyous song begin,-
Cork 1t mp.
When In tune your voice would play,
Leave it till some other day;
Do not give yourself away
Cork 1t up.
When young Love, within your heart,
Pooling with sweet Cupid's dart,
Would some gushing verses START
Cork 1t up,
Other men, in days Of yore,
Other ninnies, less or more,
Have been struck that way before,
Cork it up.
When your soul delights to ring
Welcome to the lovely spring,
And your muse in verse would sing
Cork it up.
Other men, in other times,
Other fools, in other climes,
Have been killed for just such crimes
Cork it up.

and in the middle of the beautiful leafy
park is the beautiful crystal fountain, and
in the middle of the beautiful crystal fount-

just clothed in Natures fairest garments,
with their new leaves waving in Gods pure
air, and laughing welcome to health and
truth and purity, and in the middle of the
beautiful leafy park is beautiful crystal
fountain, and in the middle of the beautiful
crystal fountain is floating deceased kitten,
decayea filth, and diptheria, Over the park
stretches the arch Of the great blue sky,
the greet blue dome of the loyal Union
sky under which Illinois marched to her
countrys rescue, and every cloud by day
and every star by light smiles loyal, Heav-
emily greeting to the noble monument of
Union, love and bravery, and the green
grass waves with every pure, divine breath,
and pronounces silent benediction upon
loyal Illinois and her noble dead, and in The

He told the office he would shoot us all if
we didn't let up on that sidewalk, and had
orders to keep still. SO kept quiet until
one day there was petition before the city

Some of these breaks are very bad, and Gre
etc much amusement among the cute ones,
but IL . reporter Is real bright, the furnish.
er of bogus items always gets the worst Of
the bargain. In Adrian, Mich, short time
ago, a hardware man had made himself q
nuisance to the reporters in this way and
they put up ajob on him. notice was
published in an obscure corner Of the vari.
GUS papers to the effect that Mr.. -
would pay five cents per dozen for old tin
cans delivered at his store on certain Sat.
urday Nobody saw the notice, but the re-
porters called the attention Of oil the small
boys to il, and when that store was full of
customers Saturday afternoon, here came
about l04 small imps with bags, wheelbar-
rows, baskets, carts and other conveyances,
full of old tin cans. The boys were not
bashful but walked in as per instructions
from their benefactors, the reporters, and
dumped the old tin cans on the floor.
They then crowded toward the counter and
clamOred vociferously for their pay. The
hardware man tried to explain, then he got
mad, raved, tore around, and finally ran the
kids out with club, they bowling all the
time like little demons, demanding their
pay, and passing such compliments as only
little street hoodlums can think Of The
merchant tore around good deal, and was
going to arrest the reporters, but they had
clear proof of their innocence, and they all
published vivid accounts Of the fuss in their
several papers and then one of the reporters
gently limited to the hardware man that he
had better shut off his supply of bogus To-
calls, and he shut. He didn't want any
more free advertising.

Death of jimmie Galceran.

The friends of Mr. and Mrs. g. E. Gal
ceran, deeply sympathize with them in the
death of their promising son, James Alan
son, who was accidentally killed near Stur-
ges, Oktibbeha county, the morning of the
29h inst.
Being out hunting, "Little Jim," as he
was familiarly called, and his younger
brother, were engaged in effort to capture
a rabbit which had taken refuge in a hollow
log, when his gun, which he had laid down,
was suddenly discharged, and the entire
load of No shot received in the pit of
the stomach, causing almost instant death.
1t is supposed that one of the hammers
was at full cock when the gun was laid
who jumped over the gun at the moment
| of explosion.
Jimmie was born in Jackson, some six
teen years ago, and had consequently
reached that age when his parents and
friends could form some reasonable esti-
mate of his course in life. He possessed
the unbounded confidence and affection OF
his parents, who were justified in indulg.
| ing bright hopes for his future, and he was
loved, admired and respected by his
friends who recognized in him not only the
dutiful and affectionate son, but the gen
ial, thoughtful, we'll behaved christian
friend and neighbor.
Mr.. and Mrs. Galceran, who are almos
frantic with grief, have warm friends il
their adopted home, who give them, with
out stint, the consolation of sympathetic
words and acts. They have this greatest
of all consultations, that in raising theil
children, they prepare them for death.

Robert Moore.

1t is with sincere regret that We chron-
icIe the death of Robert Moore, which sad
event occurred in this city at the residence
of his uncle, Capt. Lyerly, on Saturday
afternoon, October %. Deaths coming is
always sad, but in this instance it is pc
culiarly so, for its victim was so young, so
bright and so full of joyous life, that it is
hard indeed to realize that his heart is
silent and his lifeblood still. "Rob," as
he was familiarly called, was in his nine
teenth year, and had just entered upon his
duties as collector in the First National
Bank of Chattanooga, when he was strick-
en- by the fever that caused his untimely
death. As soon as he could travel, he
came back home to be with those he loved.
An immediate relapse followed his return,
and after long and desperate struggle for
his life, his spirit left him and he slept.
The bereaved relatives have much sym
pathy in their afiliction, and for the loving
sister who has looked her last upon father,
mother. sister. and her dear brother, the
hearts OF hef friends are grieyed exceeding
lv. and she has the earnest sympathy OF all
who know her.
